Lap Dogs

I sat down this morning and instantly had a companion. (Apparently I only sit down for the sake of others)

When Belle saw that Teddy was sitting on me, she wanted up. 

I scooted over so she could jump up. That's when Teddy decided that it was now play time. 

I pushed him off my lap so he could play on the floor. He didn't like that. 

For a moment, they both sat on my lap calmly. 

And then Teddy heard something and started getting jazzed up again. 

And we started the play time all over again. Right this moment, we are all calm and mellow. 

I expect that to last no more than 67 seconds. ;) 

The Best Dog Chews

A friend of mine, who used to manage a pet store, once told me about Himalayan dog chews. I bought a single chew for $8 and hoped it was worth that much money. 

It totally was. My dogs love chewing on it. It lasts forever. It doesn't stink. Worth every penny. They are made of yak's milk. No chance of splintering or breaking. 

I bought these yesterday- 

The package has three smaller size chews and it was on sale for $11. 

Sometimes I'll spend a dollar and buy a small Greenie bone, but my dogs have those eaten in less than an hour. Each of these yak chews lasts for at least a week and my dogs take turns chewing on it everyday. 

Get the Buffalo!

Teddy! This is why we can't watch nature shows or cartoons sign horses or movies with horses or movies with animals! Teddy tries to chase them all down and you can't hear the movie over his barking. 

Good thing he's so cute! It makes up for the fact that he's a dog of very little brain! ;) 

We LOVE our Teddy dog-- even when he's being a dork. 

Dog Sitting

We've been watching my best friend's dog for the past 4 days. It's been SO much fun. Suzie is a great little dog. 

She loves being outside. 

This is her watching me closely because I was eating, but still starting to fall asleep. 

She plays well with my two dogs too. They chase each other around the living room. Belle has gotten older and doesn't like to play as much. Teddy has met his match with Suzie who outplays him daily. The extra playing has worn them both out. 

Belle-- 

Teddy-- 

Silly Dog!

I'm watching the kids movie Spirit with my kids. 

And my dog. 

He can't stop barking at the horses. 

And the horse noises. 

And the birds. 

He keeps coming to me to "fix" it. When I don't move, he runs up to the TV and stands on his back legs to get closer to taking out the horses. 

Teddy's not the brightest bulb in the box, but we sure do love him. ;) 

Ownership

Lil Foot the Bigger has decided that Belle's crate is the perfect napping spot. Therefore, it is now his.

Maybe I have a FEW too many Pics of my Dogs

This is from the last 6 weeks on my phone. They are too cute! 

My Dogs

I have SO many pics of my dogs on my phone! Especially Teddy!

My Dog Kip

I went to pick up Minnie's body at the vet this afternoon and they told me my dog's box of ashes had come in. So I got to take home two bodies. :( 

Minnie will be buried in our herb garden with the other beardies who have lost their lives. Kip's box will stay on our mantle with his toy puppy on top of it.
